Conceptual modeling constitutes a learning task faced by most
students of Informatics related fields such as Business
Informatics, Information Systems, and Software Engineering. Viewed
as an activity, conceptual modeling involves an intricate array of
cognitive processes and performed actions including: abstracting,
conceptualizing, associating, contextualizing, interpreting &
sense-making, judging & evaluating, drawing & visualizing;
and, in group settings: communicating, discussing and agreeing.
Learning conceptual modeling is, hence, construed as a complex
task based on codified & tacit knowledge and learning
processes involving knowledge acquisition through experience.
Learning conceptual modeling involves mastering theoretical
foundations, modeling languages and methods, and applying them to
practical problems. Teaching conceptual modeling is a likewise
challenging task faced by didactic and practical challenges.
Research on teaching and learning conceptual modeling forms a
diverse body of knowledge involving foci on learning tool support,
feedback to learners and the use of learning theories and methods.
Due to its relevance for education and practice, research on
teaching and learning conceptual modeling provides several
starting points for innovative and original contributions taking
complementary angles and methodological stances on learning
conceptual modeling.
In this special issue of Enterprise Modelling and Information
Systems Architectures (EMISA) - International Journal of
Conceptual Modeling, we invite researchers and practitioners to
discuss the multifaceted topic of teaching and learning conceptual
modeling. Topics of interest for this special issue include, but
are not limited to:
- Fundamentals of learning conceptual modeling
- Learning paradigms, learning theories & learning approaches
and conceptual modeling
- Instructional Design methods for teaching conceptual modeling
- Learning processes of conceptual modeling
- Learning outcomes, competencies and difficulties in learning
conceptual modeling
- Feedback approaches for learners of conceptual modeling
- Conceptual modeling curriculum
- Modeling tool support for learning conceptual modeling
- Educational technology (eLearning, learning management systems,
virtual & mobile learning, social media, and more) for
learning conceptual modeling
- Learning analytics for conceptual modeling
- Gamification of learning conceptual modeling
- Teaching & learning conceptual modeling and emerging topics
(Virtual Reality, Augmented Reality, Artificial Intelligence, and
more)
- Adaptive systems and techniques for the teaching of conceptual
modeling
- Teaching and learning conceptual modeling in the digital age
- Approaches and methods for studying the teaching and learning of
conceptual modeling
